Hollywood stars from every facet of showbiz have spent the past few days enjoying and partying at our Las Vegas restaurants and nightclubs. So many, in fact, that it’s easier to run it down for you broken down into a list of who went where.

Lavo in the Palazzo

It was a Dancing With the Stars reunion for Gilles Marini, his pro partner Cheryl Burke and Sabrina Bryan. They arrived at Lavo after midnight for Stoli cocktails, took photos with fans and danced to salsa, with Cheryl displaying her winning dance floor moves. Victoria’s Secret model Kylie Bisutti celebrated her newfound success by enjoying a quiet early dinner with family, including her mother and husband Mike Bisutti in a party of 10. Kylie looked stunning and turned heads walking in with her high boots and a tube dress. Servers treated her with a special dessert plate with candles that read “Congrats, Kylie!” Kissy-kissy couple Aaron Paul of Breaking Bad and girlfriend Jessica Lowndes of 90210 chose a secluded booth for dinner. Joba Chamberlain of the World Series champion New York Yankees and Torii Hunter of the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim were spotted at a VIP table in the nightclub.

Tao in The Venetian

Actress Brooke Shields, who is rarely seen in Las Vegas, was in town for the Consumer Electronics Show. She looked elegant, sexy and beautiful in a black mini-dress during dinner at Tao. Kid Rock dined with friends inside the private dining room before heading up to the new, exclusive, elevated VIP skybox overlooking the moat section and dance floor. Kid drank Jim Beam and Pepsi while enjoying cigars. DJ Vice unsuccessfully egged him on to come to the DJ booth to spin, but the group, which included David Spade and Dana Carvey, got up and danced every time Vice played a Kid Rock song. The PYTs clamoring for Kid had to be content with looking instead of getting close.

The Palms

The celebs were everywhere you turned in George Maloof’s hotel casino. N9NE Steakhouse guests included Andre Agassi and Steffi Graf with two friends.

Other guests included Kid Rock, who dined in a party of 12 with George Maloof; Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban who initially sat in the lounge; and rapper Too Short, who was accompanied by eight people. At the end of dinner, he signed chef Barry Dakake’s famous door. Stanford football star Toby Gerhart dined with four friends. At a nearby table, rapper Xzibit dined with friends. After celebrating their fifth wedding anniversary at Alize, rocker Vince Neil and wife Lia stopped in to see chef Barry and signed his kitchen door.
